Biden mourns Navy SEALs presumed dead off Somalia
BY BRAD DRESS - 01/22/24 11:56 AM ET
 
President Biden arrives at White House in Washington, D.C., on Monday, January 22, 2024 after spending the weekend in Delaware.

President Biden on Monday mourned the loss of two Navy SEALs who are presumed dead after they went missing off the coast of Somalia earlier this month during a special covert mission to seize Iranian missile parts bound for Yemen.

Biden said in a statement that the presumed deaths of the two SEALs were a “profound loss for our country.”


“These SEALs represented the very best of our country, pledging their lives to protect their fellow Americans,” Biden said. “Our hearts go out to the family members, loved ones, friends, and shipmates who are grieving for these two brave Americans.”

Did he ask what type of seals they were?  Were they harbor seals or fur seals? :whistle:

The only thing Biden mourns is Beau(never his first wife and daughter, they were memory holed) and his ice cream when it melts before he can eat it.

Biden said nothing. The White House issued a statement, but only after being called out by the RNC on Twitter for not giving a rat's rear end about the SEALs.
